The Scarecrows’ Wedding/Julia Donaldson, Axel Scheffler by Scholastic Corporation/ Arthur A. Levine Books

In The Scarecrows’ Wedding, Betty O’Barley and Harry O’Hay are planning the best wedding the barnyard has ever seen. But when Harry sets off to fetch some flowers for his beloved bride-to-be, the wicked scarecrow Reginald Rake tries to take his place. Can Harry become a hero and save their special day? This glorious new adventure from the creators of Superworm and Room on the Broom is full of drama, excitement, and wedding bells.

Why we like it: Adorable rhyme with charming illustrations make this a fan favorite. Dramatic and romantic, there hasn’t been a scarecrow so adorable since Ray Bolger in the Wizard of Oz.
